History

edit

The club was founded in 2021 and competed in the National Amateur Cup that season. After topping its group, Irvesuud FC advanced to the final before ultimately losing to Kapitron FC on penalties. The club received automatic promotion to the Mongolia Second League with its second-place finish.[1][2]

The following season, the club narrowly missed a top-three finish during its first campaign in the Second League.[3] However, in 2023/2024, the club finished runners-up in the league and defeated DMU FC in a promotion/relegation series to earn promotion to the First League for the first time.[4]
